Re: LIFE
Dear Valued Client,
This is God. Today I will be handling all of your problems. I do not need your help. If life happens to deliver a situation that you cannot handle, do not attempt to resolve it yourself! Please put it in the SFGTD (something for God to do) box. All situations will be resolved in due time. Once the matter is placed into the box, you are strongly advised to let it go. Do not hold on to it by worrying about it. Instead, focus on all the wonderful things that are present in your life now. You are strongly advised to recommend these services to a friend as well for bonus customer appreciation points. Please be reminded also that the fee for the termination of these services is only a lifetime of pain and misery.
Have a nice day.
Love,
God (CEO, SFGTD Inc.)
So I opened a (new) SFGTD Box yesterday. So far I put school, work, family, friends, finances and future in there. I have this special deal with unlimited box space, but my list keeps getting longer. I think the box will soon be full...
Question: What would you put in your SFGTD box??

What would I put in my "Stuff for God to Do" Box
Faith in knowing this reality is just one aspect of who and what we are.
All the "man-made" demands i try to take with a grain of salt and appreciate the love and encouragement from people who to have faith.

Sigh...I am such a cynic..I am unable to just release the stuff and wait, for they never seem to be resolved and to just go away in an organised manner. Therein lies my issue with blind faith.
